Chapter 418 - Episode Sixty-Four - A Visitor from the Fire Country (14)(Side: Jeem)

He looked at his own body, which was glowing purple from the disintegration of the spirit, and sniffed.
“I’ve never imagined that I would have to risk my very existence to fight. I never imagined that I would have to go that far to fight anyone other than Kudor. I must admit, Abel Belek, you are strong.”
Jeem had a goal of defeating Kudor and reclaiming the world ruled by high-ranking spirits.
However, his own pride now outweighed that goal.
If he had put his goals first, he should have abandoned the fight against Abel, whose safe path to victory had already been cut short, and made a plan to escape.
Jeem was currently in control of the Maharaun Kingdom and held the fate of all the countries in the world in his hands.
For Count Julem and the others, Julem would also become an important presence in the future.
Without him, the plan to trigger a world war centered on the Dinrat Kingdom and to deplete the magical power of the country’s guardian deity, Kudor, would be greatly postponed.
It would be delayed for a hundred years, or even a few decades at the most.
If that happened, Count Julem and his men would not be able to attack Kudor with the strength of the nations of the world at the perfect time.
However, Jeem’s goal of having the sovereignty of the world in the hands of high-ranking spirits was based on the idea that high-ranking spirits are far superior to humans.
It would have been better if he had just retreated to conserve his magic, but once he had decided to give it his all, and being defeated by someone he had always looked down upon as a lower rank was not something he could tolerate.
It was a problem that affected the very core of his being.
Jeem kicked the ground and jumped to a nearby large tree.
The earth was gouged and a cloud of dust rose.
Immediately after, he struck the trunk of the tree and moved forward.
The tree was easily snapped by the blow.
His speed and physical strength were far different from the previous Jeem.
Wary of the situation, Abel, as expected, pulled back all the metal balls for protection.
“Abel the sorcerer! I, Jeem, am going to kill you!”
The figure of Jeem that was closing in on Abel split into three.
It was not …… the “Kyouka Suigetsu” special technique that used instantaneous division of spirits.
Each of the three Jeems was further divided into three parts, increasing the number of Jeems to nine.
The essence of the technique is the same as that of the “Kyouka Suigetsu”, but the meaning is very different.
Although Jeem has succeeded in sublimating the spirits into a martial art, he still does not have complete control over the unique phenomenon of the spirits.
Three was the limit for him to keep the spirits under his complete control.
If he divides his body into nine parts at the same time, he will never be able to return to the original one.
For Jeem, who believed that strength was all that mattered, the idea of separating spirits to weaken himself was something he could not accept.
Even with that determination, he still chose to defeat Abel.
“It’s not over yet! This is my last and final move, “Mad Kaleidoscope”!”
The nine Jeems continued to increase to twenty-seven, eighty-one, and two hundred and forty-three.
Two hundred and forty-three Jeems surrounded Abel in a circle larger than all directions.
Jeem was completely willing to give up all of his power.
The increased number of his alter egos will greatly reduce the capacity of his magic power.
He knew that once this battle was over, the over-strengthening would cause the spirits to collapse, rendering them useless.
“If only eight metal spheres can protect your meager body, then protect it!”
The purple-glowing Jeems shouted in anger.
The metal spheres simultaneously covered Abel, completely covering him.
The Jeems who had reached the front waved their arms.
“It’s no use, Abel! You …… and I are done here! Let me prove it! That there is no such thing as a stronger human than us!”
The armor of the metal ball was shaved off the surface of the body by the wave of fists that Jeem released.
It was clear that the metal sphere would soon be destroyed.
As one of Jeem’s fists raised to deliver a second blow, I closed my eyes from the blinding light that poured from above my head.
When I looked up, I saw a shining black sphere similar to Abel’s sphere floating above me.
However, it was more than two times larger than the Abel sphere.
It had a diameter about the length of a human being.
“What the hell is this ……?”
“Abel Bomb!”
A confined voice echoed from inside the metal sphere.
A black glow exploded together with the large sound.
More than two hundred Jeems in the area were engulfed in flames.
The Jeems that were caught up in the fire had their spirit bodies burned off in the light, and fragments of their bodies flew about and then burned away.
In the black light, the wailing of the crowd of Jeems was echoing.
The trees were also scorched, turning to charcoal and disappearing into dust.
It was a mutant of the Abel ball.
The Abel Bomb was much less powerful than the Abel ball, but the range of the explosion was much wider.
It was a magic that Abel had kept to himself because it involves him and also causes a lot of damage to the terrain.
Jeem’s “Mad Kaleidoscope” will greatly reduce the density of each and every spirit body at the cost of splitting it into more than two hundred pieces.
By over-strengthening the spirits until they collapsed, he had somehow managed to keep their physical abilities from declining, but this had the effect of drastically reducing the durability of each individual.
The original Jeem might have been able to withstand the flames of the Abel Bomb, but the dispersed Jeem was helpless.
The only metal ball left in the air within range lost its support and started to fall.
“Wind, carry!”
The metal ball was lifted up by the wind and landed softly on the ground.
But the ground was also a slope because it had been gouged into a spherical shape by the Abel Bomb, and the spherical fortress rolled on the spot.
After moving left and right for a while and then coming to a standstill, the metal sphere unfolded like the peeled skin of a fruit.
“That was a terrible thing. It was a spur of the moment, so I didn’t think that far ahead …… Should I have at least taken out the thorns and built a spike?”
Abel staggered out from inside, his legs and feet bruised.
The sight of the unexpectedly steep slope made his face tense.
He wasn’t sure he could climb up without magic.
“Nevermind that, that spirit is ……!”
Abel looked at his surroundings.
Jeem’s head, legs, arms, and countless charred pieces of his body were strewn about.
However, since they were originally spirit bodies, they soon lost their shape and disappeared as if they were evaporating.
Abel looked around for a while and noticed that one of the heads was barely alive.
“I thought it would be impossible to capture him alive, but I managed somehow ……!”
Abel approached Jeem’s raw head.
“Hiho, hohohoho …… I knew it, there was no human …… who could match …… me.”
As if he was hallucinating, Jeem’s head seemed satisfied.
With those last words, it was enveloped in light and disappeared.
